Justice not Commodity for Bargain, Malami warns


Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, SAN has urged judges in county to maintain the sanctity and credibility of the Court and not make Justice a commodity for sale to the highest bidder.

Malami made the warning in his address at the 2021 legal year ceremony of the Court Of Appeal held in Abuja.

This is made known by Dr. Umar Jibrilu Gwandu, Special Assistant on Media and Public Relations, Office of the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, in a statement made available to newsmen in Abuja on Monday.

Malami  charged them to ensure that the sacred integrity reposed on the judges remain unshaken at all times in order to foster and promote public confidence in all rulings that emanate from this Court. 

"Your resolved, as a temple of justice in ensuring that justice is not trivialized to a common bargain and is in effect accessible to all is highly commendable," he said.  

"I hereby also extend a call of solidarity, reverence and respect for the Courts and Court processes, to all our Learned Distinguished Colleagues here present to ensure that justice is not trivialised to a commodity bargained for and taken by the highest bidder, at the detriment of the indigent who for want of equal bargaining power, wallow in the shadows of judicial neglect".

He said uniformity, consistency and universality of judgement and rulings in the face of judicial precedent is an exceptional value of judicial system that must at all times strive to uphold as a way of upholding the sanctity of the judiciary in re-enacting the confidence of the common man in our judicial system.
